Dear Sajhas,

I spent four months in Nepal last year. People asked me how much money I made, how much bank balance I have, my neighbors want to have alcohol party just for nothing etc. People talk about you more than solving their own real problems. A high school graduate Sachib from Ward/Village committee has more legal knowledge than you have (no matter you have PHD from USA). It took five days to register a marriage. There is no customer service in any of the licenses, passport, municipal and malpot offices and no numbering system to call people for their service (no first come first service at all). There is no guideline to fill out any application for anything. It all depends on employees attitude. They can accept same day or call you tomorrow or take weeks to accomplish a task. I spent few days in Kathmandu. We have to hang inside bus to travel. People are more than the city can handle. You cannot withdraw your money from your own bank account if your signature doesn't match your original signature. I think Nepal never changed. Success is always measured on accumulation of wealth. A cab driver from New York who earns 4000 dollars a month has more respect than a person who make 2000 doing office work in New York. I am not judging on profession but Nepalese see only success on saving/accumulating wealth.

So OP will keep listening why she returned to Nepal, what happened ? etc instead of welcoming and assimilating in Nepalese society. Sorry to say we as Nepalese even have not started a line to be as first world country. Never happen.

I liked relatives from villages who are happy with their little farming, enjoying their lives and have courtesy of taking care of their incoming guest.
